Abstract :
This paper describes the multiplexed I/O system and the specifically designed interface to computers for use in HTGR nuclear power plants. The overall system design philosophy and functional requirements are discussed, including cost and reliability incentives, message format, data security and data rate, and system functional elements. Engineering design details of the system are described, with particular emphasis on the I/O system architecture and the computer to I/O system interface.
